I Am Pat

These poems are rooted in both inward and outward life that is, in wholeness. They move through illness, handicap, aging, disappointment, and grief, to irrepressible joy, loving relationships, and a sense of the spirituality embedded in everything. They are straightforward, accessible, and often simple. They connect with consciousness studies and quantum ideas of entanglement, non-locality, and interconnectedness, as well as a sense of the ground of all being of consciousness and light. The author has been writing since she was fourteen years old and is now a senior.
